Assembly Co-Chair of the Joint Committee on Finance
MADISON, Wis. — Today, incoming Speaker Greta Neubauer announced her appointment of the next Assembly Co-Chair of the Joint Committee on Finance. Representative Tip McGuire will lead one of the most powerful committees in the legislature and help steer the budget priorities of the Assembly Democratic majority caucus.
Incoming Speaker Greta Neubauer released the following statement regarding the appointment:
“I am honored to announce that the next Assembly Co-Chair of the Joint Committee on Finance will be Representative Tip McGuire.
“Representative McGuire has spent his career fighting for working families. He has deep experience in the budget process, and I know that he is going to make sure that the next state budget truly reflects the will of the people. He understands that every appropriation and every line item affect people in communities across Wisconsin. With Representative McGuire at the table, we will craft a transformative budget that will lower costs, support our schools, and move our state forward.”
Incoming Co-Chair Tip McGuire released the following statement:
“For nearly fifty years in America, working men and women have struggled while the rich get richer and corporations get bigger. When I first ran for office, I made it my #1 priority to fight to restore the middle class and advocate for the working people of our state. I am more committed than ever to that mission, and I am humbled to have the opportunity to craft a budget with Senator Johnson and my Joint Finance colleagues that puts affordability and the economic wellbeing of the people of Wisconsin first.”
